SUMMARY
Hulu's Content Acquisition team is seeking a Manager who will be an exceptional addition to our team. As a Content Acquisition Manager, you will participate in the content acquisition process - defining our programming strategy through rigorous analysis of data, representing that strategy internally, negotiating directly with our content partners, and working across the company to operationalize the deals our team has negotiated. This role demands someone who can blend quantitative output with a strong subjective filter to create actionable insights, all at a breakneck pace. If you have passionate opinions on everything from The Real Housewives to Fargo, then this is the job for you.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Participate in all aspects of the content acquisition process:
• Own strategic relationships with content partners and negotiate licensing deals
• Formulate content strategy and communicate that strategy internally and externally
• Track and vet new content for quality, appeal, and fit with our strategic plan
• Work collaboratively with our Finance team to value content opportunities
• Collaborate with Marketing, Product, PR, Partnerships, Finance, and Legal to ensure deal parameters of our negotiated deals are communicated and executed
• Analyze and communicate content performance post-launch
• Complete long term and ad-hoc projects, including competitive analysis, to support the strategy of the Content Acquisition team and Hulu overall
WHAT TO BRING
• 5-7 years of work experience at either a major media company or a top tier consulting firm / investment bank
• Passion for both 'old' and 'new' media, and an understanding of how the industry is changing and why
• 'Graduate level' skills in quantitative analysis and data-driven storytelling
• Strong evidence of effective verbal and written communication
• Great business judgment, proven strategic thinking, and problem solving skills
• Ability to thrive in an evolving and fast-paced environment, prioritizing and handling multiple projects concurrently, often with little supervision
• Finely honed sense of humor and willingness to participate in lively debates - everything from the sustainability of the true crime genre 'moment' to the value of 'binge-releasing' your content
NICE-TO-HAVES
• Hands-on experience in the media industry, especially one that brought you into contact with strategy and/or deal making
• Experience in and/or passion for specific content genre(s): music, sports/eSports/gaming, news, short form/emerging formats (including virtual reality/augmented reality), etc.
• MBA preferred
